(Both from Hidamari Sketch Special, pt1)

I had forgotten just how much I really liked Hidamari Sketch, and not just because there's a rubber duckie in every episode.  Thank you, Shintani-Spoonsubs, for fansubbing the Special, and reminding me. 

It doesn't get any slice-of-life-ier than this, and I loved every second of it.  There's practically no chance it'll be licensed, though, which is a shame.  Yuno, Miya, Sae and Hiro deserve a larger audience.
